How long does it take to beat TUNIC?

The main objective of TUNIC is to locate long-lost treasures that have the potential to defy death. Naturally, getting there would take the overcome of many hurdles and an exceptional journey of exploration.

As a result, the time taken by a player becomes subjective. However, howlongtobeat.com may give players a better idea regarding the time needed to finish the game. The main storyline alone will need somewhere between 12 and 14 hours to get completed. Adding the extras would require an additional 15 - 17 hours.

Every part of the game's world is explorable from the beginning. However, players will not have the appropriate tools and weapons to progress within those areas. This will urge players to go back, explore easier areas, get equipped with better weapons, and eventually return to the harder places to conquer.

Completionists might take between 18 and 21 hours if they wish to explore every aspect and unravel every secret from the game.

The time taken to complete the game also depends on several factors like skill, the number of times the fox dies, and how long a player needs to solve a puzzle. The game has the potential to frustrate players with boss fights and figuring out secret pathways despite having a simplistic look.

The lack of proper instructions also leads to the manual discovery of every item in the game, thereby consuming time.
